How many of you that use either of these heads, hunt with them straight out of the package? I hear about how sharp they are, but I have never felt they were that sharp "out of the box" I just got some 150 gr buzzcuts and have 125 gr as well. The serrations feel ok but the rest of the blade, not so much. If you touch them up, what is your prefered metthod? They fly great, so I am wanting to use them this fall. Just curious what your experiences are with them on game.

May as well post this again, since photobuckets mishap.

This is the second one I used on deer. First one just had the bleeder sheer off. No exit, this happened after a bit of penetration judging by the entrance wound. Didn't go far. Wont find any more in my broadhead collection.

I use them and they are flawless not saying there may be a miss hap here and there the 2 blades imho are always stronger but as far as sharpness if I can shave hair off my arm with them right out of the pack .. and I always have what more could you ask for plus with a lifetime warranty that's just the cherry on top of the cake

First time I used a Stinger with bleeders there was a lot of blood. They are sharp enough for deer out of the package IMHO. 'Fred Bear' sharp if you will. They don't have a large cutting diameter so shot placement is a factor. Can't speak for the Buzzcuts. I also keep some Muzzy Phantoms around, they are a bit larger blade and one of my current go-tos for lighter duty.

The first time I used one I shot a doe straight down through the shoulder blades and the arrow was stuck in the ground after the pass through. The deer only went about 40 yards and left a good blood trail. That was straight out of the pack so I wouldn't hesitate to use them again

I've had both sharp and not so sharp results from new heads, been a few years since I shot them though, usually a strop got them where they need to be. After shooting them, I used the accusharp and then stropped them. KME works too!

This has been my experience, but I only use a KME to touch up or shrpen them.
